Waiting on Wednesday (83)

"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Wherever You Go by Heather Davis


Seventeen-year-old Holly Mullen has felt lost and lonely ever since her boyfriend, Rob, died in a tragic accident. The fact that she has to spend most of her free time caring for her little sister and Alzheimer’s-stricken grandfather doesn’t help. But Holly has no idea that as she goes about her days, Rob’s ghost is watching over her. He isn’t happy when he sees his best friend, Jason, reach out to help Holly with her grandfather—but as a ghost, he can do nothing to stop it. Is his best friend really falling for his girlfriend?
As Holly wonders whether to open her heart to Jason, the past comes back to haunt her. Her grandfather claims to be communicating with the ghost of Rob. Could the messages he has for Holly be real? And if so, how can the loved ones Rob left behind help his tortured soul make it to the other side?
Told from the perspectives of Holly, Jason, and Rob, Wherever You Go is is a poignant story about making peace with the past, opening your heart to love, and finding the courage to move forward into the light.


Release Date: November 14, 2011

  6. This sounds like an 'enjoyable' read, for as far as a book that tells the story of a dead boyfriend can be enjoyable. I'm pretty sure a lot of tears will flow when reading this novel, but a great choice nevertheless.

    Take a look at my WoW.

  16. This sounds like it will be really sad but a really good story. Poor Rob. I wouldn't want to watch my boyfriend fall for another girl and not be able to do anything. :( Good pick!
